Ingredients
FRIED APPLES
- 4 large unpeeled honey crisp apples sliced
- ½ tsp. cinnamon or more if you like strong spices
- 2 Tbsp. brown sugar
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- 6 pats of butter
- 1 cup water
TOPPING
- 2 cups oat granola low sugar or honey
- 1 cup pecans chopped
- ½ tsp. cinnamon
- 2 Tbsp. brown sugar

- ½ stick butter softened
Instructions
FRIED APPLES
- Slice apples and place in a 12 inch cast iron skillet.
- Sprinkle apples with cinnamon, brown sugar and vanilla, then mix well.
- Add 6 pats of butter and fry apples over medium heat for 15 minutes until soft.
- Stir apples frequently during cooking. Reduce heat if necessary to avoid burning.
- After frying, add 1 cup of water and mix well.
- Allow apples to simmer while making topping.
TOPPING
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Combine granola, chopped pecans, cinnamon, brown sugar and flour in a large bowl.
- Add softened butter and mix together with hands until crumbly.
- Sprinkle topping over apples in skillet.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes until golden brown and crunchy.
Notes
- A pat of butter is the same as a small slice off the stick.
- If you can't find honey crisp apples, feel free to substitute with another tart apple like granny smith.
- Any oat granola will work, but I used one without excess sugar added. If yours has a lot of sugar in it, try omitting the brown sugar in the topping. Taste it ahead of time to check.
